A football you can touch with your hand – even if you aren’t French.
The source: CTC and Simpson PR. Points for being first off the mark. I was expecting a lot more football-themed press releases.
The first paragraph really rammed the point home:
Irish distributor CTC today announced a novel iPod speaker in the shape of a football. “You can control the volume by touch so this is one football you can handle, even if you aren’t French,” commented Graham Doyle, Director, CTC Ireland.
